Re: Wandering Kid Flattened by Dump Truck
You know though, for any of you who watch "Right This Minute", you are able to tell that this kid is going to get up and walk away. "Right This Minute" is a TV show with various clips of all kinds of topics. However, they do show a lot of videos of Chinese kids going through all kinds of adversity. A chinese kid can get hit by a car, jump up and run across the street all while enduring a wild police shoot out, then trip into a ball of flames, yet gets up again and runs face 1st into a motorcycle flipping 15 feet in the air, and finally, gets up and walks in his front door without a scratch. Its only when his mother grabs him and whips him one does he start crying. There are tons of these videos out there. These Chinese children have some kind of flexible gumby skin and jelly bone that defeats and defies all logic. I can't count how many of these little kids, sometimes 2 or 3 kids at one time, get ran over a few times (forward on accident, back up to see if you actually hit someone, then pull forward again to park and get out of the car to help)and get up like nothing happened. It's crazy. Maybe these amazing Chinese kids should be the exception to this rule because we all know the little guy is just fine. Probably not so much the dad though! And these rules only apply to chinese drivers as well. I think its something about the combination.....And Im not being racist I swear, this is a compliment of their: offspring! |

Re: Wandering Kid Flattened by Dump Truck
That's weird that you should say that. My 17 year old son is Chinese + his ribs seem to be like that.

Re: Wandering Kid Flattened by Dump Truck
Anyone else think it's comically weird when the lady wearing the hat stops to toss the smallest of the 3 trucks out of the way? Hmmm, let's toss this out of the road before someone gets hurt!

Re: Wandering Kid Flattened by Dump Truck
I spent years being one of the 'first on the scene' for things like this - and heard it over and over and over again ......... "I only took my eyes off them for a second", or "I turned around to get my handbag / phone / wallet / keys" or "he ran from me" etc etc. KIDS DO NOT THINK FOR THEMSELVES SO YOU MUST DO IT FOR THEM. Fuck me, what is so hard about this ? I try to anticipate every contingency that could occur - especially in common circumstances like roads, carparks, shopping centres, stairwells, escalators, sharp objects etc, and I eliminate them. I am sure most of you agree, that responsible parents do it without even being conscious about the fact that they are 'mitigating risk'. Accidents will always happen - but in cases like these, they need never have occured. Just my 5 cents worth. |

Re: Wandering Kid Flattened by Dump Truck
Yeah, the truck driver made a heroic effort. Which seems almost surprising in China. Most of the videos we see from China the truck barrels right thru cars, bikes and pedestrians. Like they don't want to damage their expensive vehicle by swerving and loosing control...
